(OED-DAAR)

The Office of the Executive Director for Development and Alumni Relations is responsible for the broad area of capital development: the raising of financial resources for grants and endowments covering scholarships, professorial chairs, physical facilities, and other needs of the University.

Endowments

A University benefactor who desires to perpetuate the memory of a parent, family member, friend, or associate may make a specific donation that will be established as a trust or endowment fund. The principal is then invested and only the earnings are used to support the specific purpose for which the endowment is intended.
